Hi everyone, I am involved in training clinics and a travel ball team 5 to 9 year olds.
Recently when showing the "L" position of the throwing hand with the hand facing away I was corrected by a younger coach. What she is telling me in no longer do we instruct hand facing away but to the side facing away from the player. She stats that the hand away position puts too much strain on young players shoulders.
This was recently changed and is what they are teaching these days during certification clinics.
Is there any truth to this? Little long in the tooth but, want to keep abreast of the latest and greatest changes.
Thanks
